Beastly Beauty by Jennifer Donnelly

5.0

This story started off with a thief by the name of Beau almost being caught stealing. So he and his gang take off and ride to this castle where they find a table full of a feast fit for a king. Of course they eat and start taking whatever they find of value that they can sell. Only to be ran out of the castle. All of the gang led by Rafael make it across the bridge except for Beau, the bridge collapses and he is on the wrong side of the bridge. He goes back to the castle where he meets a court of ladies with Arabella at the head of them. She is dismissive of him and doesn’t give him the time of day, she puts him in his place repeatedly. This story grabbed me from this beginning and kept getting better and better!!!

The characters were well developed and the scenes weee drawn so vividly the movie in my minds eye was set and it was so hard to put this book down! There was no intermissions nor commercial breaks, I was captivated and couldn’t stop reading. If there could give this book more stars I would. I am off to find other books by this author because this one was great.
